  • indonesia :D

  • maybe it's because Sam Dunn doesn't smoke green. I always liked Pantera as a band, but after I started smoking I started to LOVE Pantera.

  • SHOWDOWNNN!!!!!! SHOOOTOUT!!!!

  • Lol, those are some of the easiest songs for a quiz, for a metalhead.

  • august burns red.

  • you can't even avoid commercials on you tube anymore.

  • thats cool that they were on there, but i really doubt that george strombolopolous listens to metal, cuz that quiz really wasnt very hard. o well!

  • @MetalHead420100 He hosted Loud on MuchMusic for years and you're telling me he doesn't listen to metal?

  • @JaziB hmm. actually just thought he was a regular host on it. not much loud. but ok. i know the quiz was just for fun, but it seemed very.....stereotyipical of a non-metal listener.

  • I think Sam should make another documentary. Metal: A Headbanger's Journey and Global Metal, were really great.

  • @fetalpigdissection he made Flight 666 following Iron Maiden on the first leg of their Somewhere Back In Time tour, and also made Rush: Beyond The Lighted Stage about Rush. check them out, they're both fantastic.

  • @fetalpigdissection he made the new rush documentary. Should check it out

  • Maggotlam makes a very good point. I can name dozens of bands or artists that i cant stand listening to. however, i respect for their ability to be as charismatic and appealing as they are to their fan-base. Eg; Micheal Jackson, Frank Sinatra, The Beatles, Elvis Presley and I would even go so far as to mention Eric Clapton.

    Respect is universal. You dont have to like someone to respect them.

  • yey yoshiki from x japan was in global metal *only reason she watched it*

  • He should make a film just about the European side of metal i think that would be awesome. I wish the Black Metal segment was longer :P

  • So there were signs of change in metal scene and I think there really are no other musical genres that is as international as metal is. "Global Metal" is awesome video. It's not simply informative about metal music in other countries but it have anthropological depth to it too. Sam Dunn is an anthropologist so he have implied his profession on music he love. More power to him and it was very inspiring.

  • I am an Asian American who grew up in U.S. and always have been a huge metal fan. And "Global Metal" is basically testimony of my victory after all these years, living in the States as a royal Asian metal fan. But I remember even about ten years ago, when ever I read metal magazines, I noticed lots of mails were coming from countries in Middle East and Far East as well as South East Asia. And I even read one mail who said he is more interested about metal bands from non-Western. countries.

  • Speaking of metal festivals cant wait for Heavy Mtl in Montreal gonna be awesome

  • global metal is a good movie

  • Oh and everyone knows Nevermore is the best metal band on earth..

  • I think folk metal is the sole invention of steven wilson of porcupine tree and his effect on Opeth... I could be wrong but that's my take..

  • @neuroelite In 1994 Ulver were already doing a form of folk influenced black metal. That was at the same time as Opeth were recording Orchid....(their first album).

    I think Steven Wilson`s work on BWP and Deliverance and Damnation was important for helping certain forms of metal break more, but they existed prior to Steven Wilson`s effect on Opeth, and PT`s venture into more metal territory.

  • Comment removed

  • WAAAAAAAAAAAHT THE FAUX???!!! You gotta love Pantera!

  • fuckin love these guys! i have all their metal docs on dvd special editions. anybody kno wat song was that from ironmaiden

  • @DragonoftheEastblue3 run to the hills

  • thanx a bunch dude! rock on!

  • haha good impression of phil lol rip dime

  • man geez what's with classifying everything like that or saying this is metal this is not bla bla bla, metal ain't about that type of shit, I agree it's heavy so it's metal.

    I love all those bands and im not racists redneck lmao or do I know any that like that either, maybe some places but I seriously doubt all their fans r like that

  • what about hardcore punk? are you going to call them metal because they are heavy.

  • 7:55 -LAMB OF GOD!!! -LAID TO REST

  • in my opinion the truest metal is folk metal. because you must take the folk traditional style of music from your ancestors and then envision this clad in a modern metal casing. like viking metal to the scands, sepultera to brazil, korpiklaani to the sumi, ritual day to the chinese, mael mordha to the gaelic scots, fuck... the list goes on just give me a country and ill name a folk metal act or atleast one thats influenced by the local traditional music. any country

  • korpiklaani to the sumi?

    what's sumi? :s

  • sorry my bad, "sami" or "lapps" the finno-lappic speaking peoples of finland.

  • Metal is Metal and Folk Metal is a subgenre of Metal.

    And Folk Metal can easily get it's way out off Metal, if not done with care.

    Folk Metal is not the truest form of metal, maybe it is good metal, but not truest metal.

  • Who cares if it's metal enough or not. If you like it, you listen to it. Always the same quarrels on YouTube: Who's more metal, who's the best drummer, who's the best guitarist. Who cares..

  • the only real difference is the true metal and the corrupted hollow cultureless counterpart being acts like slipknot, dragon force, lamb of god, just the layman's metal you know. its souless, doesnt mean the musicians suck or arnt trying but they just dont have the soul...like korpiklaani or slayer or tyr, or darkthrone. that stuff just has the magic you know. make's you go wow...this song sounds different and no angsty lyics

  • hail darkthrone!!!

  • fuckin right bro!

  • Slipknot sucks ass and is not metal, lamb of god is dangerously close to nu metal sounding and pantera IS metal defintley. I can see why Sam isn't a fan tho. Pantera isn't really an exstension of traditional metal the way bands like metallica and slayer are. Plus they have an extremeley racist redneck following

  • I dont see what everyone is arguing about. Slipknot, LOG, Pantera, they're ALL metal. Doesnt matter about how good they are. If the music is heavy enough, its metal.

  • real metal? you guys are both idiots you wouldnt know metal even if you didnt have downsyndrome

    real metal? its some mallcore bullshit, the vocals are a garbled mess its basically a tuned up slipknot

  • hahah

    slipknot?

    they are not even metal man

    but LOG

    is pure american metal

    just listen to thier riffs

    they are the new pantera

    i know most new metal bands are crap

    but LOG

    are one of the few that are playig real metal and with their own style

  • i know slipknot isnt metal im saying the vocals are the same, the only problem i have with LOG is theyre vocals every thing else is ok

    i hate the vocals theyre like mallcore just like slipknot i hate slipknot

    the closest thing to metal i guess necrophagist but again not a fan of the vocals

  • haha george saying lamb of god the best metal band, they're barely metal. fucking retard! HAHAHAHA

  • you fooollll

    LOG is the only new band that is playing real and original metal

  • sam dunn !! eres el mejor ! saludos de mexico::: i'm love metal music too::\m/

  • ...Showdown, Shootout, spread fear within without! cowboys from hell.. Pantera!!!

  • fuck i love this documentary and fuck i love metal. we have to keep this alive

  • good fucking movie

  • I thought the movie was awesome to help unite us as a "global tribe" but I'm just reading a bunch of pussies bitch about who like the cooler metal bands.

  • no worries. that american-based faggotry (blabbermouth started it, imo) has never been an actual part of anything, these dolts are only a fraction of us. they're loud yes but do not mean a thing.

  • maybe the best metalband2345t6yt5r3w2$%^ lamb of god that fucking shit mall/matchcore garbage

  • your a fool

    they are the only new metal band that are playing real metal

  • look he can still like Pantera, but you don't have to be a fanboy to like a band. I mean he can respect Pantera, but maybe hasn't listen to it so much. Stop complaining

  • well put. Pantera still reigns in their own department, but they couldnt write a good deathmetal track worth anything. Then again, no deathmetal band could write a good pantera track no matter how hard they try. point? theres no masters of everything, only kings of their own field. and before fanbois start to moan, im a panterafan aswell - proud owner of their whole back-catalogue on cd's and videos up from VHS era.

  • Sam is still cool, but WTF?

    How can he know Pantera

    They kept metal alive in the 90's They were like the defibulator resuscitating metal's corpse in that decade.

  • Metal wasn't popular in the 90's. Metal had plenty of other good bands doing just fine in that decade other than Pantera.

  • one word... disgrace

  • omfg how can you love metal and not pay homage to the best fucking metal band ever....

  • i can relate to that. like my religion is christianity and i love heavy metal, and when i face metal that has involve violence,sex,war, blood,anti-christ... you know that stuff doesnt really effect me, like i wear a metallica or a megadeth t-shirt and all it has is megadeths first album cover, its just a skull and my mom freaks out, or a ride the lightning t-shirt or master of puppet, my mom freak out.

  • sam dunn doesnt like Pantera??? thats nigh-blasphemy

  • are you serious what a fucker if he doesnt like pantera

  • his his fucking opinion, you dumbshit.

  • Is George Greek?

  • yeah

  • That Metal Test was sooo easy man :S

  • I just saw the first movie... it's f***ing brillant.

  • Yeah...Indian metalheads...\m/

  • I love those guys!

  • Hell yeah Indians rule!!!!!! Now i know i not the only indian who loves metal.

  • I am here Indian and loved metal since i was 7

  • i loved it since 10, but thats because i never really heard it till then. INDIANS and METAL TIL DEATH

  • woo!

  • ???

  • Not a pantera fan?

    DUDE WTF

  • Yes,my mind is officially blown by that.

  • Pantera and the metal genre they represent (groove) are not popular with most metalheads. Most metalheads would lump Pantera in with Korn and Slipknot as poser bands. I dont, but I dont like Pantera that much either.

  • You're shitting me,right?Jonathan Davis from korn said himself,after he watched the video for "Mouth For War",he decided then what kind of music he was going to play.I'm sure glad I'm not most metalheads,then.

  • I never said Pantera didnt influence Korn. Mike Pattons bands Faith No More and Mr. Bungle were also influences, along with hip-hop.

  • pantera are no bodies. u want good metal ,destruction, kreator, like fuck, no one knows any good bands.,

  • Its youtube.  People here will argue with you that Nirvana were metal.

  • have you ever tried listening to pantera? There one of the most popular metal bands ever and pretty much saved metal in the 90s when everybody else soldout or went shithouse. Listen to A new level, Mouth for war, Slaughter, Rise or Im broken all sick songs!

  • @zepvhrule Hmm not dissing Pantera but you have to consider the the 90's Florida, Swedish Death Metal and Melodic Death Metal scene as well as the 90's Norwegian Black Metal scene all helped shape modern Metal.

  • @zepvhrule dont forget 5 minutes alone

  • @zepvhrule I wouldn't say that Pantera saved metal. Metal in the 90's transformed somewhat and became varied. Personally, I think Pantera is overrated honestly and to think Pantera saved metal sounds awfully fanboyish.

  • @Totemhorn Being a pretty diehard Pantera fan, I kinda agree with this. What did Pantera save metal from? Grunge? Grunge killed itself (NO PUN INTENDED), and it will always be the die hard metal fans that save metal.

  • lol first question so easy

  • I was really surprised that Sam never was really into PanterA, but its aight cause everyone has different taste in our Society

  • Yet he took time to interview Vinnie and Dime on the first DVD. It's in the second disc, an interview about a car that a fan dedicated to the band.

  • What's with all the hate for Lamb Of God?

    Lamb Of God rules.

  • people dont like lamb of god for a few reasons. one, the vocals. most people think the vocals dont sound cool. second, they have a metalcore feel to them that not many traditional fans can find interesting. and third, i have heard a lot of people say that they hate the fact that l.o.g. think they are pantera. just a few reasons why. i have nothing against them, but thats just what i've heard. hope this helps. =)

  • As much as I liked Global Metal, I gotta point out that Sam Dunn made a major mistake: Iron Maiden was not the first major metal band to play in India. Sepultura had done a 3-city tour in October of 2007 (which makes them the first major band to ever play in that country), four months before Iron Maiden played in India for the first time. Just thought I'd point that out to get the record straight.

  • Well i think, Sepultura doesn't go in the same caliber as Iron Maiden.

  • check your dates properly.....iron maiden played during the period March 2007...that was the first show

  • metal fans check out Neaera

    straight death

  • WE NEED A GLOBAL METAL WORLD TOUR!

  • i salute you both!

  • In Metal universe, we don't appreciate fanboys in our world. Nobody cares whether you approve of a band or not. Don't criticize them, especially if you aren't a better musician than they are. Keep your thoughts to yourself.

    Fanboys like you have no place in our world.

  • Yeah, I couldn't be less interested in Lamb of God. It's a dumb thing to say for a metal fan that one band is the best. If anything, metalheads should know to respect that people have differing musical tastes. For my money I like the more melodic side of metal, like power and progressive, classic metal and some of the more melodic death metal.

    Awesome interview though, and an awesome documentary.

  • LMAO. Best metal band today? Awful.

  • With any luck we can hope George was paid to say that, hell before this show he was on Much Music witch for the more over is a pop/rap music video station here in Canada.

  • Much Music owns another cable station called Much LOUD. 24/7 Hard Rock & Heavy Metal.

  • I know, as well as Much More Music. With VJ's though there paid to say stuff, so who knows if or what there true opinions are. Although George does tend to like a variaty of music.

  • lol i also knew all those songs xD at about the same time

  • LAMB OF GOD RULLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!­!!

    best band ever!!!!!!!!!!and machinehead

  • hummm. why dont we have this show in america? i want it!

  • ummm cuz canada is the best

  • Geroge is a fucking idiot...Lamb of God..lol

  • Lamb of God probably the best band in the world?

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA.

  • is there any question that METAL is the most powerful and empowering music ever created by man??

  • not a Pantera fan!?.. for shame

  • Lamb Of God is not the bast metal band today

  • never was

  • George: "I will give you a hint, it maybe the best metal around the world today. MAYBE."

  • Lamb Of God is not even close. To find good metal today, you have to go to scandanavia, not america

  • I couldn't agree more

  • LoG is just shit

  • Sam Dunn is bloody Tall. Saw him at a concert about a year back

  • anybody knows where can i download that movie??

  • its not even out yet, the dvd's comin out on oct 21st. I've pre-ordered it, but you can probably find the torrents soon after the 21st of october

  • yes i can't wait... gonna buy/rent it soo fast

  • Hmm, the guy says they couldn't get an Iranian Visa? but I've seen a picture of them with all the camera crew in Iran in Arthimoth's website... :S

  • George Stroumboulopoulos clearly has cruddy taste in Metal. Lamb of God is not the best metal band in the world today. Man... even if you like that lame nu metal band do you seriously think they're THE best? Wow...

  • Also Pantera! Sheesh.

  • maybe they meant the best metal band that regular people actually know about, the REAL best bands right now are Opeth, Dream Theater, Dark Tranquility, dimmu borgir, and Nevermore.

  • Yes, I mostly agree. Which is as best as you really get amongst metal fans I'd say.

  • Add Decrepit Birth and Brain Drill to that list. Other than that... I'd pretty much agree with you.

  • ummbtw just pointing out LAMB OF GOD isnt nu-metal:S try thrash and metalcore/death

    and LAMB OF GOD i think hes saying is the frontrunner, people who arent fans of lamb of god have heard lamb of god,but fans of lamb of god dont even noe other great bands so its kinda like lamb of god is THE band of the 3rd metal generation

  • haha,I'm so buying this if there's a dvd available.

  • i didn't get the name of the slayer song damn

  • Uh.

    It IS possible to rewind eh?

    War Ensemble dood.

  • I was saying that i knew all the song exept this one

  • Iron Maiden Bangalore India...I was There....since 10 in the morning

  • what's the name of the song ? 1:31

  • it's sounds like an arabian moslem song.

  • it's the japanese band Sigh's 'Me-Devil'.

    great song.

  • umm its from the japanese band sigh

    the songs called me devil , killer tune dude :P hahha

  • i love how george said that the most metal u'll ever hear and they put on more then words, i just shit my pants laughing, cant wait to see this movie, and i love how they showed the similarities with brazilian metal and indonesian metal, \m/

  • rofl that was awesome.

  • Metal is a hole culture more powerful that anyone can understand

  • HOLY SHIT, I ACTUALLY WENT TO THE SHOW THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT THAT HAPPEND IN DUBAI, I WAS IN THE SAME PLACE WITH THEM AND NEVER SAW THEM?

    wow, holy dong....

  • WTF laid to rest that was in the intro to his first movie.....how the hell couldn't he have known that....

  • could have also been Into the Pit by Testament... lol

  • When George said "Maybe the best metal band in the world today" and they started playing "Laid to Rest" the only two words going through my mind were "F*CK YEAH!!!!!!"

  • also, i have this dvd, and i was hoping they would go to finland. Cob, Inflames, Nightwish, are all from there, well to my knowledge they are. =P

  • id have to say, the main bands that started metal would be.

    Iron Maiden

    Ozzy Osbourne(black sabath)

    And Judas Priest.

    as for slayer, the reason slayer is also really awsome, is because they were one of the 1st Thrash metal bands, and were greatyl heavy in the 80s, and are still heavy to this day. slayer is teh bomb!

  • add metallica to that list. in fact no other band has influenced metal so greatly since metallica, commericial and underground wise.

  • I think it's awesome how he doesn't feel obligated to like Pantera. This coming from someone who does.

  • went to see it at the Forum in Montreal yesterday, good movie even though I didn't really learn anything.

  • pantera is okay...

    and as for lamb of god?

    no way are they the best metal band!

    they are waaay too over rated!

    SLAYER is the best metal band

  • fuck you lamb of god rapes, man!

    i fart out slayer songs.....

  • "I fart out Slayer songs" put that on youtube. If you can fart

  • if that was possible i would probably do it. lmfao can u imagine?!

    can't wait to see this movie. hope it's as good, if not better, than Metal: A Headbanger's Journey

    (P.S. George should not attempt to sound like Phil Anselmo...no one can match that....)

  • he doesn't like pantera??? O.O

  • George thinks Lamb of God is one of the best metal bands today? :/

    Wow.

    On the positive side though, Sam Dunn doesn't like Pantera :D, right on.

  • I love what he said about Iron Maiden in India, if he had just seen what went on here in COSTA RICA when maiden came! Biggest concert EVER in costa rica, people waiting outside the stadium 7 days before the concert. So awesome

  • Si, es cierto, si el cree que eso es fanatismo, como se nota que no se fijo en Costa Rica, yo viaje en bus de Panamá, hicimos fila desde el lunes a las 6 de la mañana, y luego aguantarnos el sol y la calor del martes, comer en la fila improvisadamente, y finalmente ese PANDEMONIO que se formó a la hora de entrar al estadio.... si Sam Dunn hubiera visto eso se muere!!!

    Los Latinos somos los mejores!!!!!

  • I wanna watch this SO BAD!

  • hahahahahahahaha Whitesnake...

  • Is this coming to the cinemas in the UK?

  • im not a guy.... watch my vids...

  • yes i think so... or maybe paramount

  • dude i guessed all the songs! yay! :D

  • Anyone know where we can watch the full movie?

  • Man, it says on the official site that this was supposed to be in Vancouver on the 20th of June....7 daays later, and noone has it.

  • yes it is there at tinsel town

  • o shit really? is it silver city?

  • no its actually playing at cinema 7 on granville street downtown.

  • oh wow thanks guy

  • actually i only really knew 'cause when i said the lyrics in my head i could hear the guitar and then i knew

  • dude i hate pantera and i still knew that haha i should make a documentary

  • wow he didn't get the pantera lyrics right.... that one was easy as (cowboys from) hell....
